Bellagio Fountains

This pic was taken by one of my military buddies...thanks Miller!

After a grueling week I am very happy to have a moment just to blog. This past week was very hectic! In fact, I am happy to be back in school this week to slow down a little! :-)

As I continue posting about my life experiences, I realize that this post is not about Okinawa...I will have to come back to that. Some of my pictures did not transfer. I will have to retry. Thus, I am going to another memory at random.

Above you see a picture of part of the night time fountain show in front of the Bellagio Casino in Las Vegas. Several times I stayed in Vegas while TDY (Temporary Duty/Deployment) to Nellis AFB in Nevada. While I don't drink, dance, gamble, or frequent the strip clubs that everyone thinks of in relation to Vegas, I did enjoy sightseeing downtown. The Bellagio Casino has a world-renowned fountain/light show in front of it every fifteen minutes after dark until 2200 or 2300 every night. Several hundred lighted, moving fountains dance to music and shoot over 100 feet into the air. I made a point to go see them every time I visited Vegas. It is very beautiful...if this is what men can do, imagine what Heaven will be like!
